Any rumors on how many 88 displacements? I’ve heard they will take it down to 500 crews. Also heard 200 crews to be displaced....big difference there.

All your base are belong to us.

Add possible upgrade of 320/319s with enhanced cockpits to get the life extension.

I think the latest update from crew resources showed 375 crews left by the end of this year

Can you elaborate on "enhanced cockpits"? is it just LCD from CRT? or are we also getting FLS, ROW/ROPS, RAAS, soft GA mode, TCAS on AP,etc...?

Guy in the jumpseat the other day from the training department said there's a profile view like the E170 has coming to the 330 neo and (as far as he's heard) the little busses too. Pretty slick for keeping SA

If only the fixes stayed on this he screen when you were not pointed directly at them.......

Apparently on the 350 they do, but are grey or something when you’re turning.

But yes, vsd is slick

Absolute garbage compared to the E175s. It works like posted above, fixes all stay there. VSD clutters the MFD too much, I think taking away SA. Boeing did a really bad job with it.
